About Taylor County Human Services
Taylor County Human Services is a county operated addiction treatment center in Medford, Wisconsin providing outpatient alcohol and other drug abuse services for all Taylor County residents.

The clinic also addresses dual diagnosis, offering coordinated care for co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, and provides case management and telemedicine options, relapse prevention and smoking cessation counseling.
